Profile

You don’t have to be able to pronounce korhogofefemougou to appreciate succulent steak marinated in Ivory Coast spices—just one of the twists on bargain-bistro classics at this Lower East Side lair with a French-colonial feel.

Kitchen Hours

Full Menu served daily, 8 a.m.—midnight with a light bar menu served every night until 4 a.m.
